Drafted my Gone Gaming article on math and wrote my review of the VixenTor dice tower. Those will post on Wednesday and Thursday as usual.

The rest of my writing time was spent going back to a few sections of Elder Races: Aldryami which I knew needed slightly extensive work, then starting my full polish and revision of the book from the beginning. I did the rewrites on Friday and most of the editing today and cleared the first 35,000 words, which is about a third of the book, which is also what I needed to finish. Editing is on the one hand somewhat mind-numbing work, but on the other hand much easier than first time writing, so although I took occasional breaks (mainly reorganizing my games and otherwise cleaning up the Dining Room), the editing went pretty quickly.

I'm going to be sooo happy when this book is done, because I've been working on it for a year and a half (with a big gap in the middle) and thinking about it for much longer than that. On the other hand I've just signed up for a very similar project (which I hope to get a contract for tomorrow).

The one thing I didn't get to that I wanted to was my next "Brief History of Game" article. It's going to be on Lion Rampant, and I have big chunks of it composed in my head, but I didn't have the time to write it. In any case, I'm beginning to suspect that my Brief History column is going to drop back to monthly come 2007 because I continue to have a lot of paying work on my plate.
